This book by a pioneer generation civil servant is a fascinating and an engaging account of Singapore's spectacular development from a sleepy backwater village to a first world State within a single generation and defying, in the process, all odds against its survival. This story is unique in many ways and starts right at the beginning when Singapore became a self-governing State in 1959, the same year the author entered the civil service. The author's involvement and participation in the detailed planning of pioneering policies, the strategies adopted and their implementation at the ground level by many front line ministries and institutions, in which he has served for more than four decades, have given him a unique hands-on experience and observations derived in working from the inside — in areas ranging from slum clearance to representing the State overseas. The story also details how the cooperation between an honest and visionary leadership and the citizenry created an effective professional, proactive and productive public administration, which excelled in service delivery at home, and enabled the State to punch above its weight globally, overcoming at the same time many political, economic and security challenges, amongst others, and always ever mindful that nothing in the scheme of things can be taken for granted. The success achieved and the many lessons learnt therefrom have universal application and had attracted global interest.The story is very well illustrated with compelling and illuminating insights and richly complemented by the author's anecdotal observations throughout.

When Singapore became a sovereign state in 1965, the fledgling nation faced very similar problems as most other developing countries: high unemployment, low standard of living, and poor environmental conditions. In a scant four decades, it has become the 6th wealthiest country in the world in terms of per capita GDP and has managed its environment so well that it is now considered to be one of the best in the world. In this remarkable book, Tan Yong Soon authoritatively and objectively analyses how the environmental conditions were radically transformed within this period, and the enabling conditions which made this extraordinary transformation possible. This book will unquestionably make all Singaporeans proud of their environmental achievements, and at the same time enable other countries, both developed and developing, to learn many lessons from a most remarkable success story. This book is a must read for any individual interested in environment-development issues. -Prof Asit K. Biswas, President, Third World Centre for Water Management, Mexico and Distinguished Visiting Professor, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, Singapore.

Singapore to Montreal. 275 days. 23 countries. Three continents and an ocean. More than 20,000 kilometres. A journey of a lifetime.Is it possible to travel from Singapore to Canada without flights? In a bid to find out, intrepid 20-year-old traveller Ganesha Balakrishnan embarked on a life-changing quest that saw him hitchhiking across deserts and steppes, sleeping on the couches of strangers, camping on snow-capped hills, city parks and beaches, and sailing across the Atlantic on a cargo ship all while armed with just a 60-litre backpack and a mettlesome attitude.The Long Direction isn't a mere travel memoir but a historical, social and cultural commentary on the numerous countries Balakrishnan visited, a recount of spine-tingling - and sometimes life-threatening - experiences and a compilation of life stories of the people he met along the way. Whether writing about back alleyways of ancient cities, being stalked by the secret police, or having a romantic encounter in lands where same-sex relationships are both illegal and taboo, Ganesha Balakrishnan gives a thrilling account of what's it like to leave everything behind and take the road less travelled.
